Final PNP Flight Story Of 2012: Lots of Puppy Pictures!!

Dear All:

We’ve had another successful dog rescue.

Long story short – we were in the Nashville area and went to pick up what was originally going to be one dog from the Lebanon Animal Control – of course we left with five.

But, I’m never gunna go to the housing facility again on a rescue. I know how many we left behind and what their chances are. And some of those dogs were really sweet. But there is a finite number of dogs we can fit into our airplane and still have a safe flight for both humans and animals.

And when we arrived at John C. Tune airport (JWN) there was a plethora of 8-week old Catahoula Leopard Dog puppies waiting for us.

I flat out love LOVE this Coonhound! And he doesn’t have a Foster Family or a Forever Family yet – so he came home with us. And absolutely needs a family. If you can give him love, please contact us!
